Fabrizio's style is a nice blend between the most modern development of tango and the traditional style. This allows him to dance in a playful and graceful manner with a close and open embrace. His strongest areas are definitely his precise technique and the way he transfers his knowledge. The clarity of his concepts and exercises enables a beginner or an advanced dancer to easily achieve the essence and the lead of every possible movement.
